What I Know
I know that people deserve to be treated justly and fairly. I know that not all people can be treated as so. I know this because I had a dream awhile back. t took place about several years ago.


I was arrested and charged with the murder of ten different people all over the country. There was evidence to prove that there infact was ten actual killers, there was DNA, fingerprints, a confession, and other solid evidence safe guarding me from any charge. My lawyer said I’m guilty, and i ended up with life sentence without parole.
Two years later several other murders occurred and the same thing all over again happened. But I received a death sentence instead. I was broken out of jail, and I took over the world.


This dream is an extreme example of unfairness and unjust punishments. I know that everyone should be treated fairly and justly because people feel horrible if mistreated or given unjust punishments. Now a less extreme example.


You're in school and a bully punches someone. Well a teacher saw it and took the necessary disciplinary action and suspended the kid and gave him a detention and notified the parents. This is a fair and unjust punishment but if there was beating the kid until he said sorry he’d never do it again is unjust and unfair.


Were all human none of us are perfect were all bound to hurt someone some time in our life. We should be given another chance. Even if we have different food, cultures, languages, or skin color. Were all the same deep down we are.
